Aptamers 2018 | 11-12 April | Oxford

Welcome to Aptamers 2018!

Our 5th Oxford meeting – Aptamers 2018 –will address therapeutic, diagnostic, analytical and basic research applications of aptamers and invites oral and poster abstracts from academic and industrial researchers. We particularly encourage final year doctoral students and early/mid career postdoctoral researchers/junior group leaders to submit oral abstracts, as we believe this event will provide their research excellent exposure, critical analysis by attending senior researchers and new career opportunities.

The symposium will feature:

High-impact talks, discussions & several hours of networking

Oral presentations by an international faculty of senior & junior researchers from academia & industry

Following on from our discussions during INSOAP AGM at Aptamers 2017 relating to the 3 minute ‘flash talks’ by student/early career poster presenters, we are pleased to announce that Dr Sarah Shigdar will chair this session. A number of posters will be selected for short presentations by the symposium committee. If you would like to be considered, please express your interest at the time of registration/abstract submission. There may also be the opportunity of a sponsored cash prize for the best presentation. This session will run on the first day of the symposium so that participants have as many opportunities to network during the meeting and at the dinner as possible.
